an end to such law breaking. The liquor

GEN R. S. RIPLEY, who died in New York
Wednesday morning, and who commanded the
confederate batteries which first opened fire on
Fort Sumter, was q classmate at West Point
with Major Anderson. who was in command of
the fort at the time. Singularly enough Ripley
was a native of a Northern State-Ohio-and
Anderson of the slave State of Kentucky. Rip
ley had married in South Carolina and was a
Southerner by adoption He was fond of telling
anecdotes, and used to relate the following funny
incident in connection with the opening Of hos
tiities:
II had ordered" said General Ripley. "some
cooked hats for our uniforms. and one day be-
fore the attack met boy with box in his
hand running towards Fort Moultrie Where
will find General RpeyF he asked me. why,
what do you want of him9 said /. Why, said
the youngster, Il heard that they were TO start
firing Fort Sumter. and I must get this hat
to him before they start He thought the attack
could not be made unless was in full regalia.
AS it happened 1 was awakened ar hour or two
before the first shot was fred by false alarm
that the signal to begin hos.ilites had been

with railroad men, with whom he sustained most
intimate relations. He had for friends and cor
respondents nearly all the prominent railroad
managers OF our time, who will remember him
kindly, now that he is gone. Many Of them,
whom he had long known, commenced life even
with him, but they passed him in the race, and
yet he never murmured. He had learned to take
things philosophically. He took everything as
it came and passed gracefully on to his end.
For some months he has been aware that stran-
gulation might take place, but the warning in no
sense lessened the shock when the fatal moment
came. He kept going to the last and only sur
rendered by literally being "choked off"
The intense interest which he took in the de-
feat of the iuterstate-commerce bill was the last
work of importance to which he turned his hand
It's passage was a severe blow to him. and in
fact, it may be said to have been the chief cause
of his taking off. He thought that some por-
tfons of the bill would work harm to the class to
which he belonged, and hence he fought it with
all the persistence of his nature; but he was
doomed to disappointment and defeat He has
passed into nothingness and we shall see him no
| more. Requiescat in pace.

WILL Cleveland decide to veto the
Interstate commerce bill 10 the alien
crossing topic among thinkers at the
national capital. Concerning the
probable :ate of this greatest measure
OF the present. session, q correspondent
Of the Minneapolis Journal treats
thusly: Considerable discussion has
been created by the action Of the Pres
ident In referring the interstate COM
merce bill to the attorney general In
stead Of signing 1t ut once as he was
expected to do. IL is well known that
some Of the Presidents most intimate
associates In New York state are OPP
posed TO the bill and that they have
urged all sorts OF objections TO il upon
the President. 1t Is remembered that
Mr.. Cleveland was railroad lawyer
himself before he was elected mayor of
Buffalo. and he is Ms likely to be rs
well posted upon all subjects Of legis
lauon affecting railroad interests ms
any man in Congress. That this bill
is exceedingly popular with the peo-
pie of the west will have no weight
with the President, il be decides
that the provisions are bad. No one
who knows him will dispute this for q
moment. During his term as COVER
nor Of New York, it became necessary
to pass upon a bill for which there
was more popular clamor In New
York city than for any other measure
which came before him during the sd.
rninistrstion. Cleveland considered
the bill as unconstitutional and
promptly vetoed il. That WAS the bill
reducing the rate OF fare on elevated
roads to five cents. It was suggested
that IL the President concludes after
his consultation with the attorney
general that there are any unconsti-
tutional features in the interstate
commerce bill as ii passed, he will
have no more hesitancy in vetoing 1t
than he had In treating the New York
bill In asimilar manner. Itis thought,
however, that IL he should consIuer
the measure rs not proper one for
executive approval he will outline to
Congress law Of similar character
which he could sign"

1T would now seem to be we'll set
tied matter that what basgbeen called
the Hudson Bay route will soon be put
upon regular settled trial. A vessel
has lately been launched In England,
and another will he launched in
March. both OF which are being fitted
up expressly to ply between Fort
Cbnrchill, on the west shore Of Hud-
son Bay and Great Britain. Forty
miles of the railway which is to con-
meet the Canadian Pacific road with
Fort Churchill has been completed, so
that according to the present prospect
the season Of 1855 will see the practi.
cability Of this route put to fair test.
The vessels that are being built for
this service .are being CONSTRUCTED of
steel and teak wood, and are being
built with great strength. Itis hard
ly possible TO form a reliable opinion
as to the practical ility of this new
transportation route from Manitoba to
Great Britain. Heavy quantities of
freight can no doubt be collected at
Fort Churchill, and when n vessel well
loaded at that point happens 10 make
a direct and successful Voyage to Liv-
erpool, there will be great saving OF
distance over any other route and cor
responding saving Of freight charges.
But, according to the experience thus
far had. It would seem that.vessels can
sometimes get out Of Hudson Bay and
start well enough, and at other times
have 70 lie over for year or more
